Manganese oxide is any of a variety of manganese oxides and hydroxides. [1] These include Manganese(II) oxide, MnO; Manganese(II,III) oxide, Mn 3 O 4; Manganese(III) oxide, Mn 2 O 3; Manganese dioxide, MnO 2; Manganese(VI) oxide, MnO 3; Manganese(VII) oxide, Mn 2 O 7; Other manganese oxides include Mn 5 O 8, Mn 7 O 12 and Mn 7 O 13.
Manganese dioxide is the inorganic compound with the formula MnO 2 . This blackish or brown solid occurs naturally as the mineral pyrolusite , which is the main ore of manganese and a component of manganese nodules .
Manganese(II) oxide is an inorganic compound with chemical formula MnO. [2] It forms green crystals. The compound is produced on a large scale as a component of fertilizers and food additives .
Manganese(II,III) oxide is the chemical compound with formula Mn 3 O 4. Manganese is present in two oxidation states +2 and +3 and the formula is sometimes written as MnO · Mn 2 O 3 . Mn 3 O 4 is found in nature as the mineral hausmannite .
Michele Mercati called magnesia nigra manganesa, and finally the metal isolated from it became known as manganese (German: Mangan). The name magnesia eventually was then used to refer only to the white magnesia alba (magnesium oxide), which provided the name magnesium for the free element when it was isolated much later. [41]
Manganese(III) oxide is a chemical compound with the formula Mn 2 O 3. It occurs in nature as the mineral bixbyite (recently changed to bixbyite-(Mn) [ 3 ] [ 4 ] ) and is used in the production of ferrites and thermistors .

Manganese(VII) oxide (manganese heptoxide) is an inorganic compound with the formula Mn 2 O 7 Manganese heptoxide is a volatile liquid with an oily consistency. It is a highly reactive and powerful oxidizer that reacts explosively with nearly any organic compound. It was first described in 1860. [1] It is the acid anhydride of permanganic acid.
